Foreign Affairs Committee – statement

“We’re very surprised and concerned at the passing criticism of Linklaters in the report.

We reject any suggestion based solely on the fact that we - like dozens of other international firms - operate in a particular market that our services may somehow involve the firm in corruption, state-related or otherwise.

As a leading global law firm, Linklaters adheres to the highest standards of business conduct, ensuring we comply with applicable laws and professional rules, including with respect to anti-bribery and corruption, anti-money laundering and sanctions.”
